摘    要
在一个产品的发展过程中，虚拟现实可以减少时间和成本，同时提高其质量。由汽车公司在上市时间和持续提升质量方面面临的压力，汽车工业已经在大量的应用中使VR技术的使用炉火纯青，其中包括设计、制造和人员的训练。本文描述了来自一家汽车制造商的11名工程师和相关专业人员对他们目前的物理和虚拟的性能和进程的访谈。其研究结果指导了学术文献的研究成果和科学进展，为未来VR技术的发展和应用提出建议打下了基础。这些包括:开发更大范围的虚拟环境;使用多感官仿真;解决虚拟和真实汽车之间的感知差异;改善动作捕捉能力;实现网络化实现3 d技术;并利用虚拟现实技术进行市场调研。

Future directions for the development of virtual reality within an automotive manufacturer
A B S T R A C T
Virtual Reality (VR) can reduce time and costs, and lead to increases in quality, in the development of a product. Given the pressure on car companies to reduce time-to-market and to continually improve quality, the automotive industry has championed the use of VR across a number of applications, including design, manufacturing, and training. This paper describes interviews with 11 engineers and employees of allied disciplines from an automotive manufacturer about their current physical and virtual properties and pro-cesses. The results guided a review of research findings and scientific advances from the academic literature, which formed the basis of recommendations for future developments of VR technologies and applica-tions. These include: develop a greater range of virtual contexts; use multi-sensory simulation; address perceived differences between virtual and real cars; improve motion capture capabilities; implement net-worked 3D technology; and use VR for market research.
